Using an apple earphone I bought with my rs giftcard. Works fine, but no volume controls implemented with android at the moment. Clear talk with mic and decent quality with the ear phones.

Im thinking of buying the dr dre beats studios or earbuds still debating...what do you guys think?

I am planning on getting the MEElectronics M11p+ in the near future. Great price and a growing fan base... MEE is reviewed quite well on headphone forums. Currently using Shure E3Cs but they see a lot of abuse, and no mic. And stay FAR away from the Shure mic adapter, it worked for 1 day. I should have paid attention to the reviews. Crap!

I have some skull candy houla's sound great look greater, and they have a mic
[EVO 4G Accessories] Gazelli:
The middle (phone on/off) button works fine, which would be a deal breaker if it didn't. Unfortunately the up and down (volume) don't. Not a big deal since volume adjustment isn't something I do all the time and it's not a big deal to just use the phone adjustment.

I have both the Studios and the Tours with ControlTalk and they both work great on the EVO I use the Tours more with the EVO because they are alot more portable the the Studios I would highly recommend them. Also there customer service is amazing I accidentally broke my Tours and it was totally my fault and they replaced them free of charge and even payed for shipping both ways.

So yours are working? I got mine today and cannot get the mic to work with my EVO running CM or the Hero. How else can I test to see if I got a defective unit?

From my experience, the mic and remote on this set does not work with the EVO, at least on Cyanogen mods 2.2 alpha release.

Any suggestions on how I can try to get this function working?

It says here that it should work for the Nexus one

Can someone here confirm that they have had success in using the MEElectroincs earbuds with mic on the EVOand with which ROM?

I just rolled back from CM 6 to Damage Control 3.2 to test if that was the issue. I got the headphone with mic icon in the notifications bar and audio comes thru but the remote did not answer a call, act like a mic while in the call or mute when the button was pushed during teh call, which according to the mfg's website is the way it is supposed to work on the N1.

Trying to determine if I have a defective product or for some reason it is not compatible with the EVO.

Thanks in advance!

[EVO 4G Accessories] katmandu421:
Do all functions work on the EVO?
[EVO 4G Accessories] Brutal-Force:
I have found that on the search for the Holy Grail of Earbuds, that the EVO just has weak output. I have finally settled for some V-moda Remix, although the Faze would have been enough for me. When compared, they are about on par with the Klipsch S4i and about any other $50-100 pair of Earbuds with Microphones.

The both have very good sound quality (when played through a Music Player), but when used with the EVO, it just lacks the power to push them to a Jawdropping volume. It makes the caller seem tiny on the other end. Also, until your Earbuds are broken in, the music/voices sound tin-ny (not to be confused with tiny).

I have a FiiO E5 Headphone Amplifier on its way to see if that will make the difference. The price was not to shabby, but you shouldn't have to carry a amplifier for your EVO. Additionally, I am not sure if the microphone function will pass through, although this is minor since I can remove it to talk.

As another EVO member already pointed out, its a shame that with such a Media-centric device, that a little bit more forethought wasn't given to the sound. But I guess a lot of people are betting on Bluetooth, which IMO does not measure up in any form. BT has been around 15 years and still is horrible.

I got the ifrogz ear pollution with mic sat in the mail. So far so good. Wife didnt even know i was on the mic and shes picky. Listening to pandora and it sounds great. I like my cx300's better but these have a mic.

15.99 off amazon shipped for the green ones.
[EVO 4G Accessories] abrigham:
What's your experience so far with the control button on the mic, and which model did you get? I picked up a pair of iFrogz EarPollution Plugz and I can't get the button to work. It only seems to skip backwards (and I've tried both the HTC music player and MixZing) when I press it...

I've also considered the MEElectronics M9P, but am concerned about it's remote, since one person says it works and another says it doesn't...
[EVO 4G Accessories] Impulses:
Sorry it took me a while to get back to you, I hadn't logged in to post in a couple of days... I'd say you got a defective unit tho, because mind works beautifully. I can answer and hang up calls with the mic button just fine and people tell me it sounds great, I can also start up the HTC music player by just plugging in the M9P and clicking the button (just like I can w/my Bluetooth car kit), as well as pause playback obviously.

The only other thing I can think of is that the Hero didn't have proper support for headsets w/mics and/or that the ROM/kernel on your EVO is breaking the mic detection... Seems unlikely but I'd check w/a stock ROM/backup before calling Meelec for a replacement.

The good news is that MEElec seems to have awesome support and service so getting a replacement should not be an issue at all, at 'least from what I hear. I've only e-mailed them a couple of times with questions but I got pretty quick responses, haven't had to return anything myself.
[EVO 4G Accessories] jerseydvd:
Anyone try the Zagg Audio buds?

http://www.zagg.com/audio/smart-buds.php
[EVO 4G Accessories] Impulses:
Like I said, mine works perfectly well, I think katmandu got a lemon or something, but they have a pretty good warranty so he should be able to get 'em replaced. I've read of people that even changed their minds on what model they wanted after ordering and MEElec was able to accommodate them, so it seems they've got pretty good service.

Mine sound substantially better than my old CX300 or JVC HA-FX34, and the mic works great. A lot of people at Head-Fi.org were saying the mic-less version (M9) was a good value at $20-25, and the mic version (M9P) usually sells for $30-35 at MEElec's site when there's no specials... Good news is that Newegg has 'em at $23 w/free S&H, in black and silver too.

Pretty good deal if you ask me, considering some say they're comparable to some of the $50 headsets out there. My sister just got some and her mic works w/the iPod touch too, FWIW. The case they come with is pretty handy and svelte too, I still just put 'em in a pouch when I'm out and about but when I'm gonna toss 'em in my book bag I'm glad I've got the tiny case.

Pictures taken with my EVO btw. ;)
[EVO 4G Accessories] Kooper113:
Thanks for the newegg link, will be picking up the M9Ps! I actually use/own the M9s, so when I looked at your pics before reading your post I was like "Wait what" lol. They are indeed very high quality if you get a good seal. I'm a member over at Head-Fi myself btw. :p

Sorry to hear that.

thanks for the clarification... gonna get myself a pair, then and will report back...

SENNHEISER In-the-Ear Bluetooth Stereo Headset (MM200)

I know its bit pricey but I got one and oh GOD I love it. I have been looking for case for evo for biking and than I realized that this might be much better solution. Works fantastic for sports, remote works like charm and battery life ... I have no clue still did not manage to discharge it.
[EVO 4G Accessories] hd54321:
I have the ME9's. Ordered from Amazon and the remote on the first set was broken. Amazon exchanged and now all is well. Remote/mic works perfectly with phone and btunes. HOWEVER, when using the headphones, noise cancellation SUCKSSSS (for the microphone). People on the other end can hear all the riff-raff around me when I'm riding a bus.

Unfortunately, it's no better to use the handset as they didn't think of including a noise cancelling mic in the phone. Anyone know of a headset that has built-in noise cancelling for the microphone?
[EVO 4G Accessories] edtate:
Well, after going through shure e2c's, multiple seinheisser's, klipsch, and other buds, I'd have to say hands down the best earbuds i've had are the NuForce NE-7M Headset. They don't have music controls, but it does have an inline mic. What it also comes with is probably the best sounding buds that 50$ can buy. Period. Just look at some of the amazon reviews of these phones; their seriously amazing.
[EVO 4G Accessories] JvIo55iBl3r:
I have a further details to ask, have u anyone tried to use those best earphones during working out, i mean, running or jogging. I enjoy listening to music/pandora during running, so I ordered maximo iP-HS3 after i had evo. unfortunately, the mic doesnt work after the first hour of running. i replaced it. Then the left earphone of 2nd pair cant last another 3 hours running. have no choice but returned it. So i was wondering if any one of you tried earphones during exercise, and give me some suggestion which pair I should buy. Thank you.
[EVO 4G Accessories] Impulses:
FWIW I actually considered a pair of Maximos before getting my MEElec M9P, the Maximo iP-HS5... But I got turned off on them after reading a lot about durability issues (on the Amazon reviews and at HeadFi.org) and realizing that they were way more prone to microphonics (cord noise) than the other models I was considering. Maximo does seem to have a greaty warranty service tho, so there's that. In the end it came down to the NuForce NE-7M that another poster above praised and the M9P, I went w/the M9P 'cuz I could get 'em much cheaper and I was drawn to the very low microphonics w/the new/improved cord they started using a few months ago.

Either way, I'm not sure I'd use any pair of $50 (or even $30) headphones to exercise daily... Even if it holds up somewhat well to the abuse it's definitely not gonna last as long as it would otherwise, and I'm the type that tends to keep running even when it starts raining... :p

Question, do you absolutely need a mic when you go running/jogging? Otherwise I'd consider getting a separate/cheaper pair for that... I'm using a pair of JVC HA-FX34 right now for running and they've held up pretty well after 6 months, you can get 'em for like $10-15. Won't sound as good as most of the NuForce/MEElec/Kplisch/etc headsets being discussed here but it'll still be much better than stock buds or crap like Skullcandys. (no offense to anyone rocking Skullcandys, that stuff's just overpriced tho)

The JVC's tips are probably part of the reason that I enjoy using them for exercise... They're the foamy kind tho wrapped in some kind of pleather or vinyl, unlike Complys which are just foamy thru and thru (altho those are highly praised a lot, never tried 'em myself). Anyway, it seems to me that said kind of foamy tip is more likely to stay put in your ear during exercise and less likely to drip sweat inside the earphone itself (more likely to absorb it or smear it I'd guess)... Compared to the typical silicon tips that is.

JVC instructs you to sort of squish the foamy tips with your hands then insert them and let 'em expand in your ear, dunno if Complys work the same or what. If nothing else, the M9P are nearly as cheap at Newegg ($23) and they do sound markedly better, microphone might not be the best while bouncing around tho.

My 2 cents...
[EVO 4G Accessories] JvIo55iBl3r:
Thanks for the response, dude. Actually, mic is not necessary, but I just want to have like one earphones with mic, so it can both listen to mp3, and let me talk for the other time(i dont like to hold phone during the call, always bringing bluetooth headset with me outside of gym). I am checking Sennheiser MM200 too, seems it's not that bad, but a little pricy. Does it worth to have to fit my requests? besides, i decide to have some usb bluetooth adapter for PC, so can wirelessly online chat with friends and parents, thought MM200 is not bad choice for that too, huh?
[EVO 4G Accessories] Impulses:
Interesting, they're Sennheiser so I'd hope they're at 'least decent, pretty expensive tho... If you're gonna go down that route you might want to look at some other models as well.

I've seen a pair of Sonys that have a much smaller BT transmitter, it's the size of like two regular mic buds, so there's no extra cord to support the weight. It's just one cord to connect both headphones w/the transmitter in the middle, pretty sleek. I forget the model name/number tho... It was pretty expensive as well, but this was like a year ago, I haven't seen any others like it tho.

Bluetooth's certainly more convenient, altho audio quality does tend to suffer, and it's one more thing to recharge. I do use Bluetooth to hook up my phone in my car tho, and I don't get any skips or static as people tend to complain about regarding some BT headsets. Bass response suffers a bit (compared to using the aux in port) but it's not a big deal. YMMV

Edit: One of the reviewers on Amazon said that he ruined those Senns w/sweat, it was a slow death but it seems moisture got into the controls and made 'em whacky, Senn did replace them for him tho (w/another model I think, or he decided to get a different model, not sure).
[EVO 4G Accessories] Impulses:
Here are the Sony I was alluding to, the HBH-IS800. Somewhat more expensive altho Buy.com does have them for $130. Se how sleek they are tho? A lot less cord/stuff hanging around ya... When I first saw 'em they were closer to $200 so I never even bothered checking if they are any good. I might have to see if anyone's talking about 'em at Head-Fi.org, it's still by far the best designed BT headset I've seen.

Not sure why they can't all be like that, I imagine it might have a smaller battery than others but the BT part itself shouldn't consume much space. Haven't you seen some of those USB BT adapters for laptops? I've got one from Iogear where the antenna/BT nub is like half the size of the USB port itself, it barely sticks out of the laptop's side. That's certainly small enough to fit on a headphone cord along w/a small battery.

Edit: Ugh, I can't find any info on it at Head-Fi.org, someone has the model # listed in their sig and that's all that comes up on a search. The few posts I found were pretty old, as were the reviews. There's a CNet review (I know, they're mostly useless) dated Feb '09, they claim it doesn't sound as good as wired headsets at the same price (well duh) but don't name any specifics, they don't even make any mention of battery life.

The Amazon reviews are a lil' more descriptive, the only real negative seems to be the proprietary charging port (it's Sony), most of the bad reviews were from iPhone owners (terrible Bluetooth stack, no volume adjustment, not the phones' fault). There's even a couple of satisfied Android owners in the bunch (a N1 and a G1). I'm still intrigued by the design, it seems most of the electronics are actually in the buds themselves, the mic/control bud looks to be standard sized, I guess it's spread all around, pretty amazing... I sure would like to know what kinda battery life they have tho.
[EVO 4G Accessories] JvIo55iBl3r:
Thank you so much, man. Detailed and professional enough to me for making choices here.

Personally, I m not a big fan of SONY, overpriced as always, especially for earphone or headsets(, but have to admit they do have taste of appearance most of time). As to "slow death" by sweat,I do think that's not just Sennheiser, is it? As to MM200, 2 things make me struggled here, that controller and the price. believe cx400 is good equipment for music, according to my experience. maybe it's not sensitively response as Shure, but the bass and other freq range should sound good to me.

Again, appreciate your suggestion and your details, for now, still think BT equipment is more convenient than wired earphones, especially, during the exercise.
[EVO 4G Accessories] JvIo55iBl3r:
I eventually gave up MM200, just thought it's too pricy after all. maybe i will go back wired earphones with mic now.
[EVO 4G Accessories] JvIo55iBl3r:
@Impulses, again, man, thanks for all of your suggestion and details, I decided to go with Klipsch S2M(there is good deal on tigerdirect.com), similar to M9P, but feel cooler, so just ordered it, lets see how it goes when i have it.
[EVO 4G Accessories] OgremustCrush:
I just ordered the Sony MW600 (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B003DQ1DCM/ref=ox_ya_os_product). I have the Ultimate Ears SuperFi 5vi and Altec Lansing BackBeat 903 Bluetooth phones already. I really like the convenience of the BackBeats, although their audio quality leaves something to be desired AND THE DAMNED CUTTING OUT CONSTANTLY OUTDOORS is quite annoying. The SuperFi's work well, I have no complaints about them, except that I'd really prefer to use wireless headphones because being tethered to my phone can be kind of awkward. That and I've had lots of headphones wear out in the past, as well as some jacks in devices break, so I really don't like plugging and unplugging them constantly. The MW600's seem pretty nice as I can still use my good headphones, but I don't have to have them actually hooked up to my phone. That and they support Multi-Pairing, so I can use them with my iPod Touch and laptop as well. I'm going to see how good the Sony buds that come with them are, I might end up just using them over my SuperFi's most of the the time as I mainly listen to podcasts and that way the good buds can stay safe.

EDIT: Oh and they have an oled screen to show connections, song name, volume level, etc - which is just cool.
[EVO 4G Accessories] JvIo55iBl3r:
Look so fancy, man, as always SONY does for its portable products, like it. just have one concerning from point of my view, for practical use purpose, the controller/receiver is kinda large. is there any clip on the back of that? May I be here a little push? would you mind to take a pic when u have later, i mean, 360. Honestly, i still want to have one pair of noise cancelling bt earbuds (+mic if possible), MM200 is good, still want to see some competitors on the market. So? would u mind?
[EVO 4G Accessories] Burt Reynolds:
Do you have DoubleTwist?

I understand different players respond differently to microphone controls, perhaps that is your issue?

I had DoubleTwist installed and had all sorts of weird results with the button pushes on my headphones. Uninstalled and Voila! All works as intended. I should say I use MixZing as my player.

As far as earbud brands, I use Future Sonics FS1s, as modified by Ultimate Buds. No link provided as I am a new user, Google is your friend (so they say...)

[EVO 4G Accessories] TheChewbaccaDefense:
I have several pairs of headsets but Etymotic Research Hf2 is my favorite

Etymotic Hf2s are incredible sounding. They have really great sound reproduction but they do not have a ton of bass.

Depending on the audio player the remote works okay.

Only other drawback is they require a pretty tight seal to sound their best which can block out everything around you. Good or bad depending on how you look at it.

You can get custom tips which I have not purchased as of yet but have heard excellent things about.
[EVO 4G Accessories] timothydonohue:
yeah, press the central button to answer or mute while in call. works fine. i'm really happy with the purchase.
